0 C&S Property Services 24 Report post Posted March 6, 2013 Al, Not sure as I think there are many options. I would recommend to stay away from Best Buy. We have been duked by them on several occasions in the past two years. Including the Geek Squad. Its worthless and I am guilty of falling for their sales pitch. We even had a laptop hard drive go bad from there that wasnt even a year old. Took two weeks to get it back and they mailed it and left it on our porch. Since that day I have stayed out of there.

0 allisonhester 30 Report post Posted March 6, 2013 I bought my iPad used and I had to set it up with AT&T. It's about $30 a month for 3 GB or $50 for 5 GB. There was no contract. Works great, although we go over our limit a lot of the time. I switch to Wi-Fi whenever it's available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 FullBlast 14 Report post Posted March 7, 2013 I have the ipad with wifi only and if I am on the road and want to use it I just use my smart phone as a hotspot. Don't have to pay any extra for more data that way, plus the wifi only ipads are cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 RSuds 24 Report post Posted March 8, 2013 I just ordered 2 new ones with 1 g a month for 15.00 each. 1g should be enough for us to use in the field for getting on our crm and booking customers. Just use wifi when you can and do not use it for games or streaming unless you are on wifi. Also I got 11.00 off for having them on with my phone plans so it is really only 19.00 for the 2 of them.

0 Greg R 82 Report post Posted March 8, 2013 I think Verizon is only $10 a month to add it on to our phone plans. What are you using the ipad for in the field? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same thing I do. I don't use it that heavy though, just to look up a house or type an email real quick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 JDhomeservices 15 Report post Posted March 9, 2013 I use an app called pdanet+ (formerly foxfi) it costs like $8 one time fee, and lets you share your cell phone's internet connection through a wifi signal without paying a monthly fee.

Depends on what plan you're on. I have unlimited data, and they do not include wifi with that. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
